A runaway success at the 2008 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, 'Merrick, The Elephant Man' is a remarkable re-conception of the moving, poetic and ultimately uplifting story of Joseph Merrick, an astonishing man who made an extraordinary journey from object of curiosity and social revulsion to wealthy celebrity. Merrick's life and tragic destiny are brought to life in a powerhouse performance by Saul Jaffe, fusing burlesque, new circus and physical theatre.
